The good garden blog is about sharing garden inspiration and ideas from historic gardens around the world and some right next door.  Garden stories explore garden history, design, and the garden people behind famous and not-so-famous gardens.  My garden photographs span dozens of places across 5 continents.  Please join me in celebrating good garden design.

Garden puzzle

David December 2, 2014

Thanks for your emails and comments on the Lurie Garden post last week.  Many of you asked for the names of the plants in the photos.  After several failed attempts to do so myself, I realize that I could use your help in identifying these winter beauties.  Please send me any plant names you recognize so that together we can solve this puzzle. 

Either comment below or send me your thoughts at:   david@thegoodgarden.com

For clues (or if you want to recreate a garden like this), the full planting plan for this garden is available here.
